A couple things to mention before jumping into my articles this week. First of all, my Nintendo DS About.com site went live yesterday, so WOOT. Also, I’m officially looking for some fellow level-headed, reliable cybersex enthusiasts to help me run Beautiful Stranger. So far the site has nearly 100 members, but I just don’t have the time to keep an eye on it. Anybody want to help? There’s probably free cyber booty in it for you, seeing as you’ll be all powerful and junk.
- “Playing Along,” in which I address the question: can Rock Band and Guitar Hero save the music industry? (The Economist)
- “I Think We Have Some Unfinished Business,” in which I present a hot cybersex transcript in its near entirety (The Clickable Clit).
- “10 Diseases I’d Be Willing to Endure to Get Close to Dr. House,” in which I admit I’d rather have the bubonic plague than never spend time with Hugh Laurie (Heartless Doll Lists).
- “10 Reasons I’m a Sad, Sad Trick-or-Treater,” in which I lament everything I miss about Halloween (Heartless Doll lists).
Of course, as always, I’m blogging daily at Heartless Doll. Ooh, and I’ve started putting actual info into my new personal site, BonnieRuberg.com, an exciting home for… well, me.
Happy weekend, readers! I don’t know about you, but I’m spending mine reviewing DS games and picking pumpkins!

Ahhh! I love “10 Diseases I’d Be Willing to Endure to Get Close to Dr. House.” I totally feel the same way. Did you see the season premiere with Felicia Day?

She’s actually in the second episode of the season (yes, I’m a giant dork) and yes! I was like, “Tehe, I was in the same room with someone who was in the same room as Hugh Laurie!”

Oh! I didn’t realize it was the second episode. :) *sigh* <3 Hugh Laurie. I’m glad someone else can relate to my level of dorkiness.
